Halep's route to the title

SF: Simona Halep d. Garbine Muguruza 6-1 6-4

In an extraordinarily emphatic display, Halep destroyed the woman who the previous day had equally extraordinarily completely dismantled Maria Sharapova. “I think the whole match was a very good level of tennis,” Halep said. “Even if the first set was 6-1. She didn't give up a point. So it was very nice to play like that. I'm really happy that I could beat a player like Muguruza. She's a great opponent, a great player. And it's always tough against her. I played very well. And even if I keep repeating this, I can say I played the best match here. So every day I play better and that makes me happy.”
